    We can! Lots of great products from America.

    It’s only one of 30 countries in America that we need to avoid, the USA

    That’s been a major issue for Trump regarding the trade war. He thought he could get away with other countries not pacing retaliatory tarrifs, but that’s what they are going to do.

    I got called out as a russian troll in the past for saying that european countries should tell USA government and their military to fuck off.

    You all drunk on propaganda, the same politicians in charge now shouting for the rearming of europe are the ones who for decades made every sort of deal with USA government and bought billions of weapons from them.

      No, you get called out as a Russian troll for defending the invasion of a sovereign country.

        I’ve never defended the invasion of a country by another. You coming out with such bullshit highlight that you are drunk on propaganda.

          If someone else is passing through here and wants to look through index’s history, keep in mind that the truly heinous stuff is all gone because it was removed by moderators.

            We are on lemmy and everyone can see the removed posts on the modlog in they want. Crashing a thread to attack another user with bullshit doesn’t make you look too good.

      Until almost 2 months ago, the USA wasn’t the bootlicker of Putler that it is today. It was easier for Europe to buy stuff from the greatest power out there than to spend the money to develop the things in-house. American companies had both the technology and the capacity to produce whatever we needed, and depending on them did not pose any danger.

    If i were trying to improve the standing of my country and knew that the EU and US being economically linked is bad for me I would start a campaign to get the EU to stop buying american in order to weaken everyone. Divide et impera.

      Yup, nothing to do with the trade war started by applying tariffs left and right, or threatening to take over part of the European country, or interfering with the UK and German elections… It must be some unknown conspiracy instead /s

        Steelmanning their point, they might not be saying that all this is orchestrated by some third party (e.g. Russia), but that they are benefiting from it.

        To which I’d say: unfortunately, the same holds true for the alternative.

          I totally agree with the part of the comment that Russia benefits from weakening the EU and US alliance. What I am criticising is the suggestion that the problem started with boycotting US products.

          Like everything the US did before, didn’t matter. That comment is dangerously close to the bully logic that Russia and Trump share: “we can do whatever we want to you, it’s your fault if you fight back”

        Don’t forget cozying up to a nuclear-armed madman who’s ruthlessly invading your neighbor and wants to take you next and then threatening to leave the defensive pact that keeps you all safe from said madman.
